Chapter 220 with a turnaround

Hyman naturally understood the meaning of her words, "I will draw some design drawings to invite the Empress!"

"Can you draw pictures too?" Wen Caiqing was a little surprised. After all, drawing is only in the palace. Unexpectedly, Haiman also knew, "That's the best!"

"Don't you know if your mother has any special requirements?" Hyman asked for her opinion as usual.

Wen Caiqing meditated slightly and shook his head, "This is the first time I'm pregnant. I really don't know. You can make the decision for me! However, this child should be born in the summer. Shouldn't the clothes be more breathable?

"What the Empress said!" Seeing that Hyman said that the child's eyes were full of tenderness, he couldn't help smiling, "I'd better draw a picture first. As for the materials, just study it carefully. After all, there is still a long time before the birth of the little prince!"

"You're right!" Wen Caiqing couldn't help laughing at his anxiousness.

Chun'er also smiled secretly next to her. It was the first time she saw her master have such an expression. Sure enough, people who want to be mothers are different!

"The emperor is coming--" As he was saying, he heard someone shouting outside.

"Why did the emperor come at this time?" Chun'er touched the hour and was a little surprised. She hurried over and helped Wen Caiqing get up and prepared to meet her.

Haiman didn't want to meet Jiang Shize and wanted to leave first, but Jiang Shize walked quickly and had to stand aside.

"Shouldn't the emperor be in the early morning now?" Wen Caiqing saw the courtesy and asked with a light smile.

"I went down in advance!" Jiang Shize said casually and sat down by himself. Wen Caiqing also sat down on his left side. Chun'er hurried forward to pour tea.

Seeing this, Hyman blessed Wen Cai and retreated. She moved very lightly, but she was still noticed by Jiang Shize and frowned.

Wen Caiqing was a little uncomfortable when he saw him staring straight at Hyman's back, so he joked, "Is the rough envoy of the concubine's palace so beautiful? Let the emperor see the god?"

"Concubine Li, have you known that palace man for a long time?" Jiang Shize seemed to ask casually.

A trace of suspicion flashed in Wen Caiqing's eyes, but his smile did not change at all. "I don't understand the meaning of the emperor's words!"

"If you don't understand, I'll just ask!" Jiang Shize glanced at her and said, "Are you feeling better?"

"For the blessing of the emperor, my concubine is very good!" Wen Caiqing's eyes turned to his face. From just now, she found that there was a sadness between his eyebrows and he didn't seem to be in a good mood. Moreover, he came to the harem so early. It was expected that he was angry with the courtiers because of Queen Su's proton work and smiled, "Your Majesty, is it true that you want to let the Empress go to Xizhao?"

Just escaped from the broken thoughts of those old ministers, and she mentioned this again. Jiang Shize couldn't help sinking, "This is not what you should care about!"

"I don't mean to interfere in the government, but... I don't think it's appropriate for the queen to be a proton." Wen Caiqing sighed slightly, "Originally, my concubine wanted to share the emperor's worries, but I didn't think..."

"You did it on purpose, didn't you?" Jiang Shize suddenly stood up and grabbed her wrist and asked viciously.

Wen Caiqing's heart flashed a trace of panic, but he quickly calmed down, "Why did the emperor say this?"

"Wen Caiqing, don't you want to stay with me so much? I would rather go to Xizhao to make proton than see me, wouldn't I?

It turned out that he was angry about this. Wen Caiqing couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and thought that he had seen through his plan. Guan Er smiled and said, "Your Majesty, you think too much. I just want to share your worries..."

Her explanation became perfunctory in his ears, and Jiang Shize was more angry. "Wen Caiqing, you have remembered that since the day you entered the palace, you are destined to be with me and can't go anywhere, hum!"

After saying that, she shook off her wrist and strode away.

Just now, he clearly saw tenderness in his eyes, and Wen Caiqing smiled at his back. It turned out that the emperor already cared about her so much. She was very happy, not only because the plan was realized, but also because of some inexplicable warmth.

Master Yi hardly returned to Yi's house these days. Yi Yun waited for several days and finally saw him.

"Dad, I have participated in the imperial examination as promised and won the third place in the second list. You should also recommend me to be a guard with the minister of the inner court, right?" He couldn't wait to remind his father.

Yi Zhengshan's face darkened, "Let's slow down this matter!"

"Why?" Yi Yun was anxious, "Dad, do you regret it?"

"Since I promised you, how can I regret it?" Yi Zhengshan stared at him fiercely, "It's just that you can't go to the palace now. Let's wait for a while to see!"

Yi Yun frowned, "After a while? How long was that? I have always respected my father's character. Do you want to be so perfunctory to me?

"Why don't you shut up? I didn't do this for your own good?" Yi Zhengshan was a little angry, "You have only eaten food for a few years. What do you know? Do you know what the palace is like now?

"I don't care about those. I just want you to fulfill your promise and recommend me to be a guard. Is there anything wrong with that?"

"You rebellious son!" Yi Zhengshan opened his eyes.

As soon as Mrs. Yi saw the bad momentum, she hurriedly talked about Yi Yun, "Yun'er, your father has just come back. He must be very tired. Go back to your room first, and we'll talk about this later!"

"But..." Yi Yun still wanted to say something, but saw that Mrs. Yi gave herself a wink, so she had to swallow it back and turned away respitably.

Seeing Yi Zhengshan's tired face, Mrs. Yi poured a cup of tea for him and asked tentatively, "Master, what happened in the court?" Did you go out early and come back late these days?"

"Alas, things are getting bigger and bigger!" Yi Zhengshan shook his head and sighed, "The Empress Li is pregnant, which makes the selection of protons complicated!"

"Did you say that the Empress Li is pregnant?" Mrs. Yi was shocked. She hasn't gone to the palace or go out these days, and she doesn't know the news yet.

Yi Zhengshan nodded, "Yes. The emperor opened his golden mouth and ordered the queen to be a proton. Those old adults in the court are all the best friends of General Su. At the beginning, they pushed the queen to the throne. Naturally, they would not agree and ad the emperor. The emperor was furious in the early morning and withdrew early!"

"It's no wonder that the emperor has made great concessions to seek peace with Xizhao. How can he not be annoyed when those adults have opposed him several times? Mrs. Yi sighed, "But... Master, what do you think of the queen as a proton?"

"I also don't think it's appropriate, but it's understandable to think about the situation in the palace." Yi Zhengshan smiled bitterly, "Only this matter, I want to remain neutral. So several old adults refused to let me go and urged me every day to advise me together.

Mrs. Yi looked at Master Yi's deep eye socket and was quite distressed. "This is really hard for you. But according to my understanding of the Queen, she won't go obediently? I don't know how many years it will be. The hard-working back seat is equivalent to giving it away. How can she be willing to do it?

"Yes, I heard that the Empress took the eldest prince and the third princess to meet the empress dowager today, named Ci Xing, but in fact, she pleaded. The Empress Dowager was softened by the tears of her grandson and discussed with the emperor to change the proton candidate!"

"There is no joke, is it that easy to change protons?" Mrs. Yi was a little worried, "Being more, there are not many candidates with comparable status!"

Yi Zhengshan shook his head, "Today, several old adults discussed going to the inner court to see the Empress Dowager. I'm afraid they also spoke for the Empress Dowager. I took advantage of my physical discomfort and left the palace early, and I don't know what the result will be!"

Mrs Yi's eyes flashed, "Is it because Concubine Li is pregnant and the queen wants to be a proton that the master refuses to recommend Yun'er to the palace?"

"At this point today, nine out of ten are all concubines who are playing tricks on it. Now that she is pregnant again, the emperor will only love her more and more. And because of the emperor's infertility due to illness, she is bound to become the target of public criticism. The girl will only have more and more trouble around her. How can I let Yun'er enter the palace?

Mrs Yi sighed without saying anything. She couldn't know her son better. The more so, the more eager he will be to enter the palace!
